But what is the alternative you ask?
How will you live without that drive through fast food joint, or that regular
burger or steak -- or even that chicken sandwich? That choice is as individual as the animals
you are eating. That choice means
finding another way" a way that has been proven a more spiritually enlightening
way -- a less violent way -- a healthier way and the proven path to the least
possible entry into disease -- all disease.

A
great man, T. Colin Campbell and his son Thomas, wrote a book that the world
needed to read in "The China Study" after a 20-year scientific study on the
consumption of animals and health/disease. It contains research that proves that eating
animals causes cancer, and many other debilitating diseases. Their focus was mostly on cancer, however
each and every disease common to man and their cause - is listed in these
pages.

Another
book that has proven through scientific study that heart disease, the number
one killer of Americans can be completely avoided, as well as reversed -- yes, I
said reversed -- and is Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., M.D.'s "Prevent and Reverse
Heart Disease" subtitled "Based on the findings of a now 20-year study first
published in the American Journal of
Cardiology." This wonderful physician
walked away from $150,000 (each) heart surgeries, because he knew there was a
better way. He found it, he published it
and he has proven, beyond a shadow of a doubt that eating animals and their secretions
causes heart disease and a host of other heart related diseases.

John
Robbins, who is the man that changed my life for the better has written
extensively on his research of longevity in human beings, in "Healthy at 100"
evidencing the proper diet for health in "The Food Revolution" as well as his
best seller "Diet for a New America" which not only delves deeply into the
health benefits of a vegan diet, but also the emotional, loving and human life
saving abilities of all animals.

The
proof of health in relation to diet is endless, truly, and bypassing animal
products for ethical, moral and emotional reasons are admirable motives, but now
the proof is in -- refraining from eating animals or their secretions also has beneficial
health reasons.

The
reason for eating animals or their products is becoming less and less of a
reasonable argument, especially with the knowledge that there are not any
legitimate laws to protect these innocent beings who feel pain both physically
and emotionally - from worker abuse, feed abuse, improper caging or
neglect. The fact that the enormous
numbers of slaughtered animals daily prove that there cannot possibly be
"humane' treatment should be reason enough to abstain. Those
who love animals and care about cruelty abstain for those reasons alone -- and
if those reasons aren't sufficient, health is also a benefit of nonparticipation. These animals need your help, your love and
consideration. Going vegan is the only
compassionate choice.
